Chapter 114 Unity

When Geralt finally arrived at the Frostwolf tribe with the warriors of the Steel Leaf Tribe, the war had ended, and even the war lizards had begun to clean the battlefield under the order of Abel, cleaning up the orc corpses that had begun to decay under the high walls.

When Geralt saw that it was the Lizards man who was cleaning the battlefield, he let go of his original anxiety. Since he had time to clean the battlefield, it was obvious that the Frost Wolf Tribe had won. This made him feel relieved, and he couldn't help but look at the battlefield carefully, wanting to understand the situation of the battle.

However, the corpses of the Cyclops that were lodged on the battlefield surprised Geralt. These huge enemies were unprecedented. If he had not seen the orcs, Geralt even thought that the people who were asking for help from the Frost Wolf Tribe had made something wrong. These big guys were completely different from orcs. Geralt estimated the combat power of these cyclops and found that even with his own strength, it was not an easy thing to kill a cyclop. This made him very curious about how the Frost Wolf Tribe killed these big guys.

With the idea of ​​knowing more details, Geralt urged the reinforcements he brought to make everyone quicken their pace and walk towards the high wall, wanting to meet the people from the Frost Wolf Tribe earlier and understand the specific situation.

Many of the warriors who came to reinforce the Warriors had participated in the previous war against the Lizards. At this time, watching these Warriors who were still enemies cleaning up the corpses on the battlefield, a sense of contradiction and unreality filled their hearts. Although they knew that these Warriors were not the same as the previous enemies, in such a short period of time, they turned the original enemy into reliable allies, which made the warriors of the Steel Leaf Tribe who knew the inside story couldn't help but sigh at the magic of magic.

These war lizards were just brought back eggs at the end of the war between the Steel Leaf Tribe and the Lizards, but in less than a month, they had been hatched into adult individuals. Not only did their bodies undergo transformation to eliminate the unbearable stench, but their personalities also changed. Before, when these war lizards were building walls in the Steel Leaf Tribe, many warriors from the Steel Leaf Tribe had come into contact with them. These war lizards were no longer as irritable and warlike as before, and they were simply the best labor force.

Although Geralt was also surprised by the changes in the battle lizards, after seeing how these battle lizards were ripened and hatched in Abel's magic workshop, Geralt felt that he should not study this matter too deeply. Sometimes the mage's methods really challenge the ability of ordinary people to bear.

The Steel Leaf Tribe was not blocked after reaching the high wall. Because they were both humans, they were directly placed in the high wall. It was just because of the previous battle that the high wall was full of corpses. Some orc corpses that were piled up at the bottom a few days ago have become extremely uncomfortable. Many young warriors from the Steel Leaf Tribe smelled the smell after the corpse decayed and vomited out.

This scene immediately made Geralt feel dull. Compared with the Frost Wolf Tribe, which fights orcs every year, the young people of the Steel Leaf Tribe have experienced too few battles. They usually just hunt wild animals, and it is really difficult to accumulate this kind of experience in facing the battlefield. Only veterans who experienced the last war with the War Lizard Man performed better, but when they saw the accumulated corpses, their faces were also a little ugly.

Ignoring the little embarrassment that the warriors of the Steel Leaf Tribe had experienced too little in the battlefield, Geralt soon found Aiber, Nadal, Regul, and Guidak who were gathering together. They were gathering at a table and discussing the battle situation with a serious expression.

"Welcome, Geralt, you're finally here!" Regoul looked up and saw Geralt walking into the house. After saying a welcome to him, he hurriedly asked: "Old friend, how many reinforcements have you brought? Our troops are seriously insufficient now."

"About 1,200 people, of which 500 have been on the battlefield, should be considered veterans, but I am a little uncertain whether they can be called veterans now." Geralt's face was filled with a sad look, obviously still worried about the embarrassment he encountered before. The soldiers of the Steel Leaf Tribe did lack training. Although with the help of Abel, they had strong armor and sharp weapons, and many of them had also been on the battlefield, their performance was still like a group of new recruits and had not really experienced the tempering of the war.

"It doesn't matter. Just let them train on the battlefield for a while, and I believe they will be able to adapt to the battlefield soon." After hearing Geralt's explanation, Guidak said in his unique loud voice, but his eyes were staring at Geralt, and he became interested in his steel body: "Hey! Big man, are you an iron man? No, it should be said to be a steel man, are you a steel man?"

Guidak's loud voice successfully made Geralt notice his existence. He was a little confused about how to answer the dwarf's question, and was also surprised by the existence of the dwarf: "You are... a dwarf? Oh, this is really rare. Since that war, our Steel Leaf Tribe has never heard of you Dwarfs again! I am the body of steel, although it is indeed like steel, but it does not mean that I am the one who is made of steel."

"Okay, OK, the body of steel is the legendary physique of you humans! To be honest, I don't envy at all, it doesn't seem to have a literal steel-like muscle!" The dwarf shook his round head, looking indifferent, but no one could hear the deep envy in the dwarf's tone.

"Okay, let's just chat here. The situation in front of us doesn't have that much spare for you." Abel raised his hand and knocked on the table, attracting everyone's attention back, then pointed to a simple map on the table and continued: "Even with the 1,200 reinforcements brought by Captain Geralt, we are still at a great disadvantage in comparing the orcs' forces, and there is no way to talk about counterattack."

"Indeed, even after today's battle, the orcs' military strength still exceeded the eight thousand orcs, and the retreating 500 cyclops. To be honest, these big guys are the most difficult to deal with among the enemies I have ever seen in my life, especially when their combat experience is even much richer than mine." Nadal couldn't help but feel a headache when he looked at the comparison of the forces between the enemy and us marked on the simple map.

In addition to the combat power of less than 2,000 people on the Frost Wolf Tribe, there are also the 500 Battle Lizards and about 300 Dwarf Thunder Cannons that arrived today, as well as the 1,200 reinforcements brought by Geralt. The total number of troops is only about 4,000. Even if the orc side is not counted as the 500 Cyclops, the military strength is still twice that of the human side.

"I want to know why you are so persistent in destroying orcs, mages. With our current forces, it is difficult to defend the front and cannot fight back at all." Guidak looked up at Eber, with a puzzled expression on his face: "Even if these cyclops are indeed powerful, if we blow up the mountains on both sides of the pass and completely seal this road, we can eradicate the orc invasion road, and there is no need to launch a counterattack on them."

While saying this, Guidak pointed the dwarf's thick finger at the mountain wall outlined with lines on the map, making an explosive gesture, and said in a affirmative tone: "Believe me, with the power of our dwarfs, it would be easy to blow up these stones, and this would be a perfect artistic feast!"

"Mr. Guidak, please calm down a little, blow up the mountain wall, and completely block this pass is indeed a way to do it once and for all, but it is only temporary, and it must be after we defeat the orc army and destroy the mastermind behind the control of the orcs." Abel looked at Guidak calmly, explaining to him, and explaining the situation to others.

Abel's words made Guidak instinctively refute, but although the dwarf was impulsive and reckless, he was not stupid. He heard other information from Abel's words and asked him: "Wait, you just said that the mastermind behind the orcs? What is that? Didn't these orcs attack the Frost Wolf Tribe because they had been trying to go south to plunder?"

"Maybe it has been like this before, but this time it's not." Nadal, who was standing beside him, shook his head and took the initiative to explain for Abel: "This time the orcs gathered four major clans and dozens of other small clans, and such a huge force is unprecedented. Not only that, those cyclops also appeared after they summoned through the Blood Sacrifice, so there is a mastermind behind the orcs."

"The purpose of this mastermind behind this is to let his evil minions invade this world and bring killing and destruction to this world." Abel stretched out his finger and gently tapped on the simple map in front of him. Under the action of magic tricks, the entire map was quickly stained black, and then burned, turning into a pile of ashes.

Aber looked up at the others who were shocked by his actions and said sincerely to them: "I know this is difficult for you to accept, and it may even be difficult for you to believe what I said, but if evil is allowed to spread, the world will eventually turn into ashes like this map. To fight evil, it requires all of us to unite. Only by uniting all our strength can we truly defeat the evil behind these orcs and defend our homeland. Otherwise, even if we can escape this time, we will face it."

After saying that, Aiber looked at Nadal, Geralt and Guidak standing in front of the table, waiting for their answers.

After a long silence, Guidak, who was straightforward, slapped the table with his hand and slapped the ashes after the map burned. His unique loud voice rang out: "I don't know what evil is or is it evil. You just need to tell me who should blow it into the sky! It's good to have it all once and for all. I don't want to come and beat the orc every few years!" The dwarf's idea of ​​expressing his meaning is always so direct.

As Guidak said, Nadal and Geralt didn't say anything else, but turned their eyes to Abbot and expressed their support to him.
